Welcome Back!

The Office of Student Financial Services (OSFS) is looking

forward to seeing you on campus this fall. Below please find

some information that you may find helpful to ensure a

smooth transition to campus this fall.

Financial Holds

Students must be in good financial standing to attend classes

or move into the residence halls. You can review your

account balance and confirm you are paid in full by

reviewing your Statement of Account through Online

Academic Resources (OAR) via the Emmanuel Portal

(portal.emmanuel.edu)

If you have an outstanding balance, electronic payments may

also be made through OAR. Should you have any questions

about payment options, please contact our office immediately

to avoid any complications with the start of classes and/or

moving into the residence halls.

Last Chance to Complete Health Insurance Requirement!

Have you completed a student health insurance enrollment

form or waiver for the upcoming academic year? If not,

please go to www.universityhealthplans.com to complete

either the online waiver or the enrollment form. Students who

do not complete the waiver by September 3rd

will be enrolled

in the College’s health insurance plan and will be responsible

for the $1,157 premium, regardless of whether they have

other coverage.

Study Abroad

If you are considering studying abroad, we encourage you to

meet with the Office of Student Financial Services. Although

Emmanuel scholarships and grants are not available for use

during your time abroad, there is federal, state and private

funding that can be used to pay for your abroad costs. The

Office of Student Financial Services can help you determine

which options may be best for you and assist you with

required paperwork.

Student Employment

The Office of Student Financial Services will begin

posting jobs on Friday, September 3rd

through Emmanuel

College Career Connect (EC3).

If you are interested in working, we also encourage you to

attend the Job Fair that is hosted by the Office of

Internships and Career Development on September 16th

in

the Jean Yawkey Center. Several organizations who are

interested in hiring Emmanuel students for part-time

positions will be in attendance at the fair.

If you are interested in having a part-time job while you

are in school, you will want to come to campus with the

appropriate identification to complete your employment

paperwork. Such documentation includes a U.S. passport,

driver’s license and Social Security card.

Looking for a Refund?

If you have a pending credit on your account (due to

excess private loans and/or overpayment) and are looking

for a refund, please complete the Refund Request Form by

going to the “Tuition & Aid” section of the Emmanuel

website and selecting “Forms & Publications.”

Refund checks will not be available until all financial aid

funds have been received and disbursed onto each

student’s account after the add/drop period. Due to this,

refund checks will not be available for students to purchase

books or pay for September and October rent.

Contact the OSFS

If you have questions about paying for an Emmanuel

education and the options available to assist with the cost

of education, please know that the Office of Student

Financial Services is available to help you through this

process. We can be reached by phone at 617-735-9938,
